If you still use reddit, do you feel bad for doing so? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I mod a few larger subs I don't wish to leave (one I've brought here). I also participate in a work related sub. I've been spending more and more time on Lemmy lately though.

But yeah, I don't really like Reddit I'm just there because not all of my stuff has made it here yet.

Just grass. Nothing but grass. Solely grass. in c/[email protected]

This made me laugh and be sad at the same time...

Exactly why it didn't work for me...

I've had three accounts suspended or exiled from Reddit recently. I posted a link to this piece on the open web and lost another account. in c/[email protected]

It's just like... You know? Don't worry about it Scro...

But in all seriousness I'm glad Lemmy exists.

I don't have an answer to this, I just want you to know that feels so real. That would be so nice.

Anyone longing looking to add swipe library for heliboard Find it Here by picking raw and then uploading it to heliboard in advanced settings>load gesture typing library.

Sharing because it took me a bit to find it the first time.

This has been my issue with every single FOSS keyboard. I can't live without swipe.

Local Resources (slrpnk.net)
 

Don't forget to check local for great resources on how to go the No Lawns route! Not everyone may have local resources but I was surprised to find out that my county has a natives program that has a guide on what and how to plant. Check your local city/county/State/provide/Etc to see if there's already some easy resources out there.

A confession (slrpnk.net)
 

Guys, as the person who started no lawns on Reddit (and here) my yard is a disaster lol. I work outside all day and the last thing I want to do when I get home is yard work. That being said, I removed a bunch of invasives from my yard Monday and I'm working on a plan to tackle a corner of my yard the way I've always wanted to in NoLawns style with native plants. I'm always open to suggestions for the Chicago area!

If you're going to plant grass, make it native to your area, wildlife depends on it.

I've seen 2 new awesome resources pop up in the comments this week (I haven't added them to the list yet my personal life is chaos right now). I'd love to know if you guys have come across any other books, websites, videos etc that you find very useful and informative to add to the list.

Here is the current list of resources.

I'd love to get as many resources as possible outside the US.

Would love to see lists from all over the world!

Love the Sims 2! (slrpnk.net)
 

So happy to see a Sims 2 sub!! I'm really hoping to see r/sims2help migrate over here at some point. Chances this community will include the link they have in their wiki to download the game?

Why native plants? (nativegardendesigns.wildones.org)
 

Here's another link to Wild Ones explaining why to choose native plants over non natives.

What natives do you have growing?

Live in the US? Wild Ones added a few new garden plans (nativegardendesigns.wildones.org)
 

Obviously these plans aren't inclusive of the entire US but from what I understand they are working on adding even more garden plans to their list.

This can be beneficial if you live in any of these towns and would like to have a list or a plan for natives in your own yard and your don't know where to begin.

Just sharing this link since everyone always loves American meadows so much. The only issue I take with them is they sell seed packs that are "native to your area" and some are not.

One of our Reddit mods has said he's had great luck with Pheasant Forever as a US based option who focuses on natives for habitat restoration.

I've never used them personally but I wanted to drop it as a link since I had never heard of them before.

Why we shouldn't mow native praries (TikTok link) (www.tiktok.com)
 

TLDR; killing off native species as well as their food supply and habitats.
